I realized that I lost just about the absolute minimum I could lose on this hand without folding the river (which I would never do).Preflop: Hero is UTG with 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. MP posts a blind of $1.

Hi Diet,
I looked at this hand wrong before. I thought there were two tens on the board and you should raise; but there were three. You could have easily laid those quad fives down on the river unless you were eligible for a bad beat jackpot. That was an easy fold, unless you just wanted to see them so you could tell the story. (which isn't a bad reason for one more bet. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] )
